What Do You Sell

32 Seconds

Name any perfume maker – Revlon, Chanel, Coty, and others.  What do they sell? 

Hope!

Disney has rides, but they sell magic.

Book stores have books, but they sell escape and knowledge.

Do you sell love?

You had better.  People either love or hate to deal with you.

Love eggs?  Where do you go?

Have a web site?  Do people stay a while?

Do you write blogs?  Do people read them?

Do people come back for more of whatever it is you do?

I hope so.

Sell them what they want.

Hope and Love.

Pick Up the Pieces

A wise woman once said:

"If one dream should fall and break

into a thousand pieces,

never be afraid to pick one

of those pieces up and begin again. "

 Flavia Weedn

The magic is in the beginning again.

"Fall seven times, stand up eight."

The Compliment

19 seconds

Want to know one HUGE tip for winning friends and influencing people? 

Here it is in seven simple words.

“Compliment People in Front of Other People”

A compliment is music to our ears, and when said in front of co-workers, a spouse, a customer or the big boss, it becomes a symphony.

Say the words.

   Build the person.

      Make their day.

         Change their world and yours.

A Simple Word

36 Seconds

As I work in my office, Carolyn is at the piano teaching a student.  You would be amazed at the nurture and encouragement she is offering this young pianist. 

He is insecure. 

     He is a beginner. 

          He’s not very good. 

But he is performing close to his best, and she is accepting that level of work and praising him for his effort.  

Amazing! 

She’s not blowing smoke in his eyes and feeding a bunch of false bravado and false buildup.  No. 

She is building his confidence, his self-worth and his image of what he might one day attain. 

Love it.

He doesn't need another put-down.  He is receiving a huge dose of build-up. 

Wonder where it will take him?

A Seed

A Seed

29 Seconds

 Seeds aren’t much to look at.  They are small, and some need a magnifying glass to properly see them. 

But look what they can become. 

Giant oaks suitable for climbing

Stately maples offering shade on a hot August day

Lovely furniture to grace our homes

And remember the seed of an idea as well.

They have become …

Airplanes

Exploration of planets

Computers

Smart phones

Magnificent buildings

Stable marriages

Worthy service organizations that benefit mankind

There is power in the seed of an idea. 

What might your seeds become?

What indeed?
